Paideia Institute
"The best education for the best is the best education for all." --Mortimer Adler
For more information about Paideia education, contact the National Paideia Center.
Paideia intends to produce citizens who speak up and have their say in what is going on around them and not be afraid to have their thoughts put out in the open. It also teaches them how to approach a topic from multiple angles. This teaches people to be able to express themselves and discuss their feelings which will help them in life because they should be able to work things out with their peers cowokers, bosses, neighbors, etc. by understanding other's perspectives and that others have different perspectives.
A good citizen according to Paideia is one who is actively involved in the decisions of the community and contribute their own ideas and opinons. They also approach topics / problems/ ideas from multiple perspecives.
It is important to speak and listen so you are an effective communicator and open to new ideas. --Muir high school student
